ABA Therapy School Program

ABA Therapy School Program

If you’re looking for a flexible schooling option that works with your child’s unique needs—and your busy therapy schedule—our microschool model may be the perfect fit.

Through our partnership with The Heron Institute (which operates Cyber Academy of South Carolina and Heron Virtual Academy of South Carolina), we offer a fully accredited virtual school experience at World Upside Down Arts Studio. This allows children with special needs to learn in a structured, supportive environment while receiving ABA therapy—with speech and occupational therapy available as part of our growing integrated services—all under one roof.

We are currently in the process of credentialing speech and occupational therapy providers and expect for them to be ready to practice at our studio by July 2026 (maybe sooner). Please contact us at aba@worldupsidedown.org to confirm their availability.

Autistic kids can do ABA therapy at World Upside Down Arts Studio

ABA Therapy School Program for Children with Autism

Our ABA program operates within a microschool model, creating a structured, supportive learning environment where students can thrive both academically and behaviorally.

In partnership with a virtual public charter school through The Heron Institute, students are officially enrolled in a fully accredited online school while receiving in-person support at our center.

This means:

  • Students follow a standards-based virtual curriculum taught by certified teachers
  • Our on-site team provides daily supervision, guidance, and behavioral support (ABA)
  • Students benefit from a consistent routine, social interaction, and individualized support
  • Families receive the best of both worlds: flexible virtual education + structured in-person care

Our team works closely with the virtual school to support attendance, engagement, and overall success, while maintaining a safe, encouraging environment tailored to each child’s needs.
